Serves 6
Prep time - 10 minutes
Total time - 1 hour
Ingredients:
4 T butter, plus more for baking sheet
10 cups plain unsalted popped popcorn (3.3 oz bag microwave popcorn)
1 cup cashews, coarsely chopped (optional)
1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
coarse salt
1) Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Butter a large rimmed baking sheet; set aside. Place popcorn in a large bowl; if using cashews, add to bowl and toss to combine. Set aside.
2) In a small saucepan, bring butter, sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 2 T water to a boil, stirring constantly. Working quickly, drizzle popcorn with sugar syrup, and toss.
3) Spread popcorn evenly on prepared baking sheet. Bake, tossing occasionally, until golden and shiny, about 40 minutes. Transfer hot popcorn to parchment-paper-lined baking sheet; let cool. Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.
